I tried the advice given about using yahoo as my default email. It didn't work. What else should I try?

When I click on a website email it takes me to my yahoo but doesn't insert the address. Any suggestions. I don't use outlook.I tried the advice given about using yahoo as my default email. It didn't work. What else should I try?
OK---sooooo---what did you try that didn't work ?


A few details would have been helpful.





Try this:


You would need to make Yahoo the default Mail.





Click Tools%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;then click Internet Options.


In the dialog box that opens, click the ';programs'; tab across the top, and then, click the down arrow at the end of the Email line, and choose Yahoo Mail. Apply and OK.





If Yahoo DOESN'T appear on the list, as one of the choices-----**(it usually doesn't)**----you will have to download (or RE-download) Messenger---all of it----and that will put Yahoo on the list for a while.





Now, go back (tools-internet options-programs) and you will able to select Yahoo---apply and ok.





Later, you can remove Messenger---if you don't want it---without affecting the setting.
